ENGINEERS--MT. George Leather, Leeds ; Mr. Joseph Locke, Liverpool. AGENTS—At Nottingham, Messrs. Leeson and Gell ;at Leicester, Messrs. Berridge, Berridge, and Macaulay. The promoters of this undertaking, feeling the necessity of secu ring to the important town of Sheffield and its manufacturing inte rests the like advantages of Railway communications as those about to be possessed by other large trading communities, have formed themselves into a Provisional Committee for effecting that object, as far as regards a line of Railway from that town through the midland and southern counties of England towards the metropolis. The right of Sheffield to possess these advantages has already been recognised by Parliament, during discussions on other rail way projects affecting the interests of that town, and the pro moters, therefore, feel justified in entertaining a confident antici pation that the proposed measure must at once obtain the favour and sanction of the Legislature, as well as the cordial co-operation of the public at large. The Committee are well advised of the practicability of a line of railway from Sheffield (upon a level suited to join the intended railway to Manchester), having its southern terminus at the river Trent, where it is intended to unite with the Midland Counties Railway, and having also a branch connecting it with the railway from Pinxton to Mansfield. The engineers and surveyors, however, will have especial instruc tions to examine the whole of the intervening country, for the pur pose of selecting the most eligible line, with reference to its general public utility. • The necessary Capital has been estimated at 900,000/. ; but the Committee reserve to themselves power to reduce the amount of Shares to be issued, either in number or value, as they shall think best, if on further examination a smaller Capital shall be found adequate. With respect to the probable income, the Committee, co n fid en t as they are that the scheme will p r o ve highly remunerative, deem it alone necessary, in order to satisfy the public on this head, to refer to the line in which the country will be intersected by this proposed Railway, and those with which it will be united, by which it will be seen that amongst its multifarious advantages it will form a link in the main and most direct chain of communication between the metropolis and the manufacturing districts of Yorkshire and Lancashire, as well as the northern parts of the ki n gd om , an d wou ld pass through a country abounding with coal and other minerals. A deposit of Si. per Share is to be paid upon the allotment of the Shares, and to be under the controul and management of the Com mittee for the time being, for the purposes of the undertaking. The usual clauses will be inserted in the Act to limit the liability of the Shareholders to the amount of their respective Shares, and to provide for the call of subscriptions by periodical instalments. Applications for Shares may be made to any of the bankers, soli citors, or agents above named, in the following form : " GENTLEMEN--.I requlst to become a Subscriber for Shares in ' The Sheffield and Midland Railway,' and I agree to take such Shares as shall be allotted to me, and to pay the deposit there on, and to execute the Parliamentary Contract and Subscribers' Agreement when I shall receive notice so to do.

Sibthorp, Colonel BRUSSELS, JULY 23.—An extraordinary event, yesterday evening, About e eight xcited ao,fo great eok te commotion roport of tw in one quarter of was heard, proceeding from a room on the second floor of a tavern in the Rue de la Madeline, which had been occupied for four days by a lady and gentleman, who came from Paris. The persons who went into the room on hearing the report, found two persons dead on the floor, they having killed them selves with pistols, which they still held in their hands. It appears from a passport which the young man had about him, that his name was Vandeputte, a medical student, twenty years of age, born and settled at Paris. The nime of the female, who seems to be about twenty or twenty-two years old, is not known. It seems, that since their arrival at Brussels. these young persons had repeatedly expressed their intention of committing suicide. It is said that the immediate cause of their executing their intention was the arrival at Brussels yes terday morning of another female formerly the mistress of th e young man, who had followed him from Paris. Though the unfortunate young persons were decently dressed, they had no clothes but those they wore, and in the young man's pocket there were only a few centime pieces, and a pawn ticket for a waistcoat, of the Monte de Piete at Paris. The pistols were quite new small brass pistols, one of which burst in the explo sion.—Brussels paper.

THE MANUFACTURE OF SILK.—A very im portant improvement has been made in the silk-loom, at Man chester, which is likely to operate very favourably upon the' manufacture of this valuable article of trade, and may be the means of transf err i ng a very largo portion of it from France and Italy to this country. It is new perfectly clear that steam power may be applied with the greatest advantage to the silk loom, which has heretofore been worked by hand only • and a young girl may weave, w ith thi s i mprovement, as much' silk in a day as can be woven by two men upon the present plan. The new loom occupies but little more than half the space re quired by the one in common use, as all the apparatus con nected with the weights , is removed, and a spring substituted, which performs the work with much greater precision than can be wrought by weights. ISTUTTGARD, JULY 18.--The Assembly of the Estates of the Kingdom, which has been sitting ever since the 30th of January, this year, was closed to-day in his Majesty's name, by Privy Counsellor Von Schlayer, Minister of the In terior ad interim, as Royal - Com Missioner. He expressed in his speech the great satisfaction which his Majesty felt in the happy results of the labours of the Assembly during the Ses sion. His Majesty was in particular most happy that the fa vourable state of the Finance's had made it possible not only to make a considerable reduction in the taxes, but also to de stroy. the last c onsequences of villenage (which we b* re abolished), and to enable' a numerous class,(by means of laige contributions from the-Public Treasury) to free themselves from many long-established burdens. His Majesty also hopes that the new law relative to the schools will prove highly ad vantageous In extending the blessings of education among the great body of the people. Prince Hohenlohe-Langenburg, President of the First Chamber, replied in an appropriate speech, after which the Assenibly broke up. CHARGE OP MURDER.—At the Town-hall, Ply mouth, on Tuesday, Lieut. W. L. Rees, lately comm an di ng his Majesty's scho oner Cockatrice, was brought before the Magistrates on a charge of having, on the 18th of June last, feloniously killed John McDonnell, then an ordinary seaman on board that ship. It appeared that, on the day in question, whilst the Cockatrice was lying off Chatham, a lad named John M‘Donnell, who belonged to ship, was sent to the mast head for punishment, from whence he fell, and was killed on: the spot. A coroner's inquest was held on the body, and a verdict of " Accidental death " was returned ; but, subse quently, the friends of the lad, who reside at Plymouth, laid an information before the Magistrates-, in which it was alleged that he had been sent to the mast-head while in a state of intoxication. A full investigation of the charge was entered into on Wednesd a y and Thursday, which ended in the ac quittal of the Lieutenant, no case whatever being made out against him. The Guernsey Star reiterates its denial of the dear ness of provisions there, and states, that both lobsters and po tatoes are exported--of the latter 150,000 bushels at least have been shipped for English ports during the last season__ which facts certainly support the Star's assertion that the prices are moderate..

H F p A N ßE TE mt ß o s T e i c i o E nded the Rcouldse m e o i t t ion. objectiono motion, but wished it to be distinctly understood that by agreeing to the conference the Court of Aldermen would not compromise a jot of their right to remunerate their own officers.—(Hear.) THE ESCAPE OF THE CONVICT FROM NEWGATE. Sheriff LAWSON presented the prison report, in which it was stated that a convict under sentence of death, named Henry Williams, had escaped by climbing the cell-yard wall in the absence of the turnkey, whose duty it Was to attend ; that a,reward of 201. had been offered for the ap prehension of the convict, and that the clerk of the works had been directed to examine the yard, and to advise the best course to be adopted to prevent the recurrence of anything of, the kind. The report stated further the par ticulars of the examination of witnesses on the escape, from which it appeared that Williams"M't'iit - have mounted the prison walls by working his way like a chimney-sweeper, when nobody else was in the yard, that he walked along the parapet until he reached the skylight of No. 3, in Warwick-lane ; that he slipped down without shoes or stockings ; met a little girl and a woman in his way ; told them if lie stopped in Newgate he must be h ange d ; an d passed quietly t o th e h a ll-door, which introduced him to perfect liberty ; that the turnkey, who ought to have been in the yard, had gone out of the way fora short time ; that nobody could suppose it to be possible for any person to scale the lofty wall under any circumstances ; and that the convict's real name is Whitehead, and that he was a chimney -sweeper. Sheriff SALOMONS said that it was most mortifying to the Sheriffs to be obliged to report the escape of a prisoner from the gaol of Newgate, and he trusted that the event would convince the magistrates of the City of the necessity of assisting the Governor in a systematic correction of the discipline of the prison. The RECORDER suggested the propriety of establishing a night watch hourly, as it was at sea. It was then determined that a communication should be forthwith made to the Secretary for the Home Department, representing the necessity for the immediate removal of those who are confined on the ground of insanity in the gaol of Newgate. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. .HOME 4f 4.....A1D5T0NE, JULY 26. Charles Groves, Charles King, Mary Groves, and Francis Bayley, were indicted for feloniously assaulting Spencer Sargeant, at St. Clement's, Hastings, on the 19th of March last, and stealing from his pocket two sovereigns and other moneys, his prope r ty. The Learned Judge having summed up, the jury found the prisoners Guilty, and they were sentenced to trans portation for life. NISI PR/US COURT.--DRNDY V. PULLER. This action was brought by the plaintiff, Elizabeth Dendy, a mantua-maker at Horsham, to recover compen sation in damages from the defendant, a farmer, for a breach of promise of marriage. Thomas Denby, the father of the plaintiff, was a corn chandler at Horsham. The plaintiff was thirty-two years of age, The defendant had kept company with her for some time, and they were constantly together. He pro mised to marry her, in consequence of which he had intro duced him to Sir C. Young, who had consented to let him have Happinghurst Farm. Elizabeth Dendy, the mother of the plaintiff, proved that when the match was broken off her daughter was very ill. The defendant had stated before a witness that he had promised to marry the plaintiff ; and a paper was put in in evidence, in which he agreed to marry her according to the rites of the Church of England, or forfeit 5001. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff---Da mages, 2501. NORFOLK CIRCUIT.--CAMBRIDGE, JULY 25. Saturday last being the commission day for this county ; the Judges of Assize took up their abode at Trinity Col lege as usual. Yesterday their Lordships attended Divine Service at St. Mary's Church, and this morning the Courts opened at ten o'clock, the Lord Chief Justice presiding at Nisi Prius, where there are twelve causes entered for trial, three of which are special juries. DOE DEM. BURGESS V. THOMPSON. The Court has been occupied during the whole day to a late hour in trying this cause, which is perfectly divested of all interest to the public. The calendar is short, containing only eight or nine cases ; of these, however, five are for sheep-stealing, of which it would seem that there has been in this neighbour hood an organised gang, many of the prisoners having been the shepherds of the parties plundered, and evidently in communion with each other. Charles Fowler, aged 35, was indicted for stealing a pair of yokes, 10Ibs. of lead, and 21bs. of iron. The Jury found the prisoner guilty, and he was sen tenced to two months' imprisonment, with hard labour. OXFORD CIRCUIT.--STAFFORR, JULY 25. MORGAN V. HATTON AND ANOTHER. This was an action by the plaintiff, a surgeon and apo thecary, residing at Lichfield, against the executors of a Mrs. Ironmonger, who died at a very advanced age (be tween 80 and 90) in the course of last year, for the amount of his bill for medicine supplied to, and attendances upon, the deceased. The sum claimed was 2041. 16s. Gd., of which 96/. 16s. 6d. was for medicines, and 1081. for atten dances, being at the rate of 181. per annum for six years. The defendants had paid the sum of 1241. 10s. into Court, as sufficient to cover the plaintiff's claim for medicines, and they disputed his right to recover in respect of his attendances. The Jury, after some consderation, found a verdict for the full amount-2041. 16s. 6d. After some discussion, it was ultimately arranged that Mr. Phillips should have leave to move to enter a verdict for the defendant, and that if the opinion of the Court above should be in his favour, the plaintiff should be at li berty to proceed upon the bill of exceptions, with a view to a new trial. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS-MONDAY. The CHAIRMAN congratulated the Jury on the lightness ' of the offences in the calendar, although the number of offenders was equal to the usual amount. The calendar contains the names of 135 persons, of whom 29 were charged with making a riot ; idle and disorderly, 19 ; as sault, 80 ; and stealing (from the value of 6d. to 41. 100, 13.

Several other cases, of no public importance, were then disposed oi; and the Court adjourned. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. On Monday a case of child7stcaling came on before the Lord Mayor, which excited suc h powerful interest that, long before the usual time for opening the gates, all the avenues to the Justice-room•were crowded in the extreme, and much inconvenience was experienced by persons who b.ni commercial business with his Lordship. A ytiong woman, named Pherbe Adams, and her mother, Esther Adams, were put to the bar, charged with having stolen the infant female child of Mr. John Chalworthy, of 14, Wolverley-street, Bethnal-green. The prisoners ap peared to he in a very poor condition. Mr. Denney Chalworthy said, that on-last Tuesday fort night, Eliza Souter, a little girl about nine years of age, to whom the care - of witness' child had been entrusted, re turned without the child, - in the • evening, having taken the baby, which was seven months old, out to see the balloon. Eliza Souter stated that while she was out with the baby, about six o'clock on the Wednesday evening, a balloon went up. A young woma n , w h om s h e did not . l":now, was in the crowd, and said the evening Was very cold for the child, and witness said she would take it home, an d accordingly walked towards Wolverley-street. The young woman followed he and after 'inquiring Where she lived, pointed to a public house, and asked her to go to a house w;thiu a few door of it, and tell a girl named Caroline that her sister wanted to see he . he young woman then took the child from .11er, and she (witness) ran off to the house pointed at, ;tad inquired 7.s she was directed, but found no percn of the mane. Upon her return to the place where she left the youne, woman, both woman an d c hild were gone Wm.' Matthews, the nephew of the elder prisca r, stated that she had ivorked with him for the last eight yeArs, unt:l about a fortnight ago, when s h e l e f t h er wor k, an d sa id s h e was ,going to nu rse her daughter's baby, which was said to Le aboht three weeks old. Witness saw the child, and at once perceived that it was much older, and that it suited Vie description of a stolen child, and he sent his mother to mention his suspicion. He did not believe that the elder prisoner, who was a simple, honest woman, knew anything about the deception. She had carried the child about the neighbourhood openly, and was very fond of it. The elder prisoner, who appeared to be what she,was described, said that her daughter had brought home the child, after a• considerable absence, and given it to her, as we understood her, as her - graud-daughter. The LORD MAYOR—W she tell you who was the fa ther of the child ? Elder prisonerN o ; she said nothing about that, but I understood it would be supported. Plicebe Adams he child is not mine. It was given to me by a girl named Eliza, in the Mile End-road, to take care of. I know, Eliza, but I don't know,her other name. The elder prisoner was discharged. Phoebe Adams was remanded for another examination on Friday. The young woman was taken away under a strong escort, as there were hundreds of mothers ready to take summary revenge upon her. UNION -HALL. Yesterday UNION--HALL. Hart, a respectable-looking female, in widow's weeds, was brought up, charged with inter marrying with a• second husband, her first, Philip Hart, heine , still alive: A ° policenitm of the M-divison stated that Mrs. Hart was given into his custody that day by the complainant, who charged her with bigaMy. The complainant was 'married to Mrs. Hart in 1823, and went away from her in 1827, and had not lived with her from the latter period up to the present time. He added that within the last three weeks he had ascertained that she married a second husband in 1834, who had since died. Mr. JEREMY inquired whether she was aware that her first husband was alive at the period she contracted the second marriage? The complainant had not been out of England since he left his wife, and he saw her and she saw him on Millpond Bridge in 1827, but they merely looked at each other and did not speak. He admitted that he had neither spoken to his wife, or held any communication with her, from the time he left her until he heard of her second marriage. Mr. JEREMY—Don't you know that your brother in formed her that you died abroad ? Complainant—l only know it from the fact of Nei' having told me so when I re cently discovered that she had a second husband. Mr. JEREMY—Have you any evidence to prove that she was aware of your existence at the time of the second mar riage ? Cpmplainant--None at present ; but I have seen the certificate of that marriage. The MAGISTRATE then asked him the reason he had not made any stir in the business before, and the reason of his quitting her ? The complainant in r( ply said that she was jealous of him, and that on hearing of the death of her second husband, he was afraid that she would have come dOwn upon him (complainant) for a maintenance. The Inspector of Police here informed the Magistrate that Mrs. Hart had lately been left some property, and that upon the complainant obtaining this piece of intelli gence, he had now come forward. Mrs. Hart stated that such was the fact. She did not mean to deny her marriage to the complainant in the year 1823 ; that in 1827 he left her abruptly, without leaving her a maintenance, and that she had not heard of him for nine years ; and upon being informed that he died abroad she then married a second husband, who was since dead. Mrs. Dinah Walker was Mrs. Hart's mother, and that she was present four years ago when the complainant's bro ther called at their house, and told them that his brother (complainant) had died in America. She added that Mr. Hart's brother was in mourning at the time, and he said that it was for his brother. Mr. JEREMY here read the clause relating to that part of the Act, which exculpates a party from the charge of bigamy who had not been apprized of the other's existence for seven years, and had contracted h second marriage at the expiration of that period. The Magistrate then sa id, that the complai nan t h a d not produced one tittle of evi dence to show that his wife was aware of his being alive at the time of her second marriage ; but, on the contrary, had offered proof to the effect that she was informed of his death. The complainant said that all he required was a release from being burdened with her support. The father of Mrs. Hart here stood forward, and said that he should willingly give the complainant a release that his daughter should not in future make any sort of claim upon him. This latter arrangement having been acquiesced in by all parties, they then left the office. CORONER'S INQUEST. The inquisition on the body of Mr. Ferdinand Schneider, which was adjourned on Thursday last, was resumed before Mr. STIRLING at the Six Balls, King's•road, Chelsea. In consequence of the mysterious circumstances connected with the finding of the deceased's body, the inquest-room was crowded. Mrs. Johanna Schneider, 31, Great Hermitage-street, the widow of the deceased, who was assisted by an inter preter, was then examined. She was dressed in black, and was deeply affected, and on the eye-glass, the ring, and locket being produced, which was found on the deceased, she identified them. She stated that her late husband left home last Thursday week, between six and seven o'clock hi the evening. He said that he was going to get money ; but did not state at what house. The amount was 5,000 rubles. A ruble is of the value of 3s. 4d. English money. On telling witness on what business be was proceeding, she said, "Go in God's name." She did not see any check, draft, or bill. He then put on his coat and left home. She never saw him afterwards, nor heard of him, nor had any message from him. They parted in good terms with each other. He was quite cheerful and sober. She had been married twelve months. Other witnesses having been examined, The Coroner summed up, and the jury returned a ver dict, " That the deceased was found without his waistcoat or cravat, and without any marks of violence ; but by what means he came into the water there is no evidence." I 'DESTRUCTIVE FlRE.—About a quarter past three o'clock yesterday morning, a most alarming fire broke out at the rear of the house of Mr. Peter Rice, grocer and cheese monger, No. 10, Featherstone-street, Bunhill-row. The flames spread rapidly upwards, and extended themselves right and left, and darted across the street to the houses opposite. In a very short time the engines and men of the London Fire Brigade began to arrive ; Mr. Braidwood him se lf accompanied the . enfrine from the head-station in Watling-street, and soon had under his controul thirty-seven of his men and five large engines. The County engine arrived at a late period. : The original building was soon enveloped in flames, and some of the family made their escape with difficulty. There Was a strong posse of the new police in attendance, who, by keeping back the mob, greatly facilitated the exertions of the firemen, who happily found a good. supply of w ater i n t h e mains of the New River Company. Finding the saving of Mr. Rice's house hopeless, Mr. Braidwood directed all the energies of his men to the preservati9n of the adjoining property, ard, by prodi gious exertions, this was in a great measure accomplished, though there are none of the immediate neighbours but whose houses and property have sustained more pr less damage. The building, stock,•and furniture of Mr. Rice are altogether con sumed, but it is , sn alleviation of the calamity to know that he is insured for his stock. &e., in the Sun. and that the building is hisured in the Hand-in-hand. Mr. William Spencer. No. 11, builder, has had his house slightly damaged, and the workshops in the rear. are destroyed. Mr. William Jacobs, No. 9, hairdresser, has sustained damage by a hasty removal, and the building is scorched. Mr. William Horspool, No. 8. butcher, likewise is a loser by a hurried removal. Mr. J. Holmes, No. 50, staymaker, and Mr. T. Knowles, No. 51, who occupy the houses immediately opposite Mr. Rice's, have both sustained considerable loss, and the buildings are slightly damaged and many windows broken. All the parties are un ders:.cad to be insured except Mr. Jacobs, the hairdresser. The cause of the fire is unknown. DEATH BY DROWNlNG.—Yesterday morning, be tween eight and nine o'clock, Mr. Augustus Dancer, aged 22. son of the Rev. A. S. Dancer, of Hull, lost his life while bathing in the Thames between Vauxhall and Battersea Bridges. The unfortunate gentleman and Mr. Northcoat, jun., at whose house he was on a visit, went in a boat to the middle of the river. They had not been in the water more than seven or minutes when Mr.. Northcoat missed his friend, and soon, to his ;;,-reat dismay, discovered that he bad sunk. It is supposed that be was suddenly seized with cramp, and sunk in one of the deep holes in the middle of the river. The body kas not yet been found. To-rncrrow will he the anniversary of the day when the at:empt was made on the life of the King of the Mend) in 1835. The major part of the hay in the neighbourhood of Lancaster last week remained uncut. As the lightning has lately proved fatal to many individuals, though not of long continuance, it may be neces sary, now that the harvest-tia:e is approaching, when thunder storms arc frequent, to warn those who work in the fields, or elsewhere, never to take shelter under a tree during a thunder storm,. as trees attract the lightning, and expose those near them to great danger.
